This time round we got the big room. It was certainly nice and spacious with a place to sit down when tired.  On the other hand, it was freezing and the cold also made my fingers less dextrous, which was not good at all for guitar-playing... Kelvin also said that the guitar strings may go out of tune more easily.  Then the sound system seems like CMI, bee spent a long time fiddling with it but could not find a satisfactory setting.  So the vocals sounded rather 'echoey'.  There was also quite a lot of feedback compared to our usual room so we decided that we would have to give up space for sound next time...

Band
Vocal: bee, caocao, irishblue, purple

Welcome back, caocao and auditt!

Songs
 一家之主
許願 (Gigi Leung, Leo Ku)
滿地可
韻律泳
如無意外
艷光四射 (Marching Version)
海闊天空 (Beyond)
化蝶
汽水樽裡的咖啡
花見

We started with 一家之主 but we were all rather unprepared.  I chose it cos bee had bought two kazoos and it was just right for the song.  More practice required, ne!

We tried 許願 cos I mentioned that I really like the irish and bee version.  The harmony sounds good!  I get the feeling that auditt knows this song, something which I didn't expect!  Unfortunately not much time to prepare for this and some of the chords are not easy to play. There is a key change from Bb (arrgh!) to D.  Should we stick to one key throughout?  Or do you think it is more challenging to have the key change?

Think we are getting better for 滿地可, especially purple's flute parts but the mic wasn't behaving.  And I like how the drums part was building up to the last chorus.  Maybe next round will be perfect.

Still some fiddling at the intro for 韻律泳 but I think auditt managed to get the hang of it very quickly. Just a few parts to take note regarding our coordination but otherwise sounds alright.

I think 如無意外 is fine too, save for a bit of tiny hiccups.  Plucking the solo part instead of picking definitely helps.  But still waiting for amy to rejoin so that we will have keyboards for the part...

Auditt drummed very hard for 艷光四射!  Fun to play but the tempo is hard to catch.  But after some pointers from kelvin, our second take seems much better than the first.  Think the guitar needs to be a bit louder though.

First time trying 海闊天空.  Irish manage to find the score but end up we had to transpose cos the key seems not suitable for purple and alex.  Things were very messy cos the key like not match again halfway through the song and I skipped all solo parts cos dunno how to play!  Gotta find the right key for them cos C seems too low and from the recording, maybe G is too high?

Think we are alright with 化蝶, 汽水樽裡的咖啡 and 花見. Think we sound pretty tight and cohesive for 花見. Great! And for some reason, bee decided not to sing 汽水樽裡的咖啡, leaving the Irish Purple Grass trio to handle it...and then the song became known as the 殺雞 song cos I think they can't reach the high notes hehe!

See bee's and purple's blog for more reports and pics!
